Certification Regarding Eligibility
To Apply for Worker Adjustment Assistance

In accordance with Section 223 of the Trade Act of 1974, as
amended (19 USC 2273), the Department of Labor herein presents the
results of an investigation regarding certification of eligibility
to apply for worker adjustment assistance.
In order to make an affirmative determination and issue a
certification of eligibility to apply for Trade Adjustment
Assistance, the group eligibility requirements in either paragraph
(a)(2)(A) or (a)(2)(B) of Section 222 of the Trade Act must be met.
It is determined in this case that the requirements of (a)(2)(B) of
Section 222 have been met.
The investigation was initiated on March 5, 2003 in response
to a petition filed by a Colorado State Workforce representative on
behalf of workers at Ingersoll-Rand Security and Safety, Security,
Colorado. The workers at the subject facility produce commercial
door locks.
The investigation revealed that leased workers from Adecco,
Inc., were engaged in the production of commercial door locks atht
the Security, Colorado plant.
The investigation further revealed that the preponderance in
the declines in employment at the subject facility is related to a
shift in production of commercial door locks to a country (Mexico)
that is a party to a free trade agreement with the United States.
Conclusion
After careful review of the facts obtained in the
investigation, I conclude that there was a shift in production from
the workers' firm or subdivision to Mexico of articles that are
like or directly competitive with those produced by the subject
firm or subdivision. In accordance with the provisions of the Act,
I make the following certification:
"All workers of Ingersoll-Rand Security and Safety, Security,
Colorado, and leased workers from Adecco, Inc., engaged in the
production of commercial door locks at Ingersoll-Rand Security
and Safety, Security, Colorado, who became totally or
partially separated from employment on or after February 10,
2002, through two years from the date of certification are
eligible to apply for adjustment assistance under Section 223
of the Trade Act of 1974."
Signed in Washington, D.C. this 2nd day of April, 2003.
